PCS'ing soon?
After placement on your follow-on PCS assignment, you will receive an email from IPPS-A titled "Member Elections." You MUST complete this questionnaire to determine your eligibility for various entitlements and finalize the PCS process, allowing you to receive your official orders. *All determinations are based on official regulations.
IPPS-A Workflow Reminder-
While contractors may assist in preparing PCS orders, only authorized government personnel may approve funded orders, ensuring accountability and protection of pay and benefits.
Once you receive your orders, you must submit a PCS Events Absence, through the PAID tile (Absence Type: 05 - PCS Events), and link the related PCS Assignment. When submitting your PCS Events Absence, you can now:
Include a maximum of three absence reasons in addition to your travel days for a single PCS absence request.
Combine a Parental Absence with a PCS Absence.
Avoid mistakenly choosing multiple of the same type of Absence within the PCS Event Request.
Select a previously used contact/address without re-entering the information.
These updates are designed to improve the Soldier Experience. IPPS-A regularly updates their PCS Webpage, helping you stay up-to-date on changes in the system: https://ipps-a.army.mil/Drive-the-Change/PCS-Season/
